Thanks very much, Barbara, Guy, diego_cue, steve, and Morrique :)

Very nice NPC theme Morrique - and this bridge is very appropriate, as it was named for a man who worked to bridge distances between different groups, also.

and steve, well, I hope you won't have as hard a time choosing photos to vote for as you did finding the moon in this one ;)

and Barbara and Guy - I actually wanted to enter a different bridge, but when I went to take a shot of it the other day, it was under renovation! But this bridge never misses - its a great addition to the city!

Thanks -noè- I've tried to count several times and always only find 9, though. I don't find any vote on page 8. But 9 is fine. I'm happy that any found the photo worthy of a vote, given all the great competition this month.

And thanks very much wim ! This month was a hard one to narrow down - so many great bridges. But as one can tell from my own entry and most of those I ended up voting for, I love night shots, and bridges at night. Your shot was truly my favorite. Well captured! Cheers,

And thanks everyone for the votes and for enjoying the photo. Happy Holiday season to you all.:)

Hello kamaly,

I have this in my favourites. When you you were trying to take this photo and the moon was moving behind the wires it must have seemed like it was "strumming the harp"

Cheers,

Incredibly beautiful display!

Thanks for the Favorites star, Tery! It does look like that, doesn't it? lol, I was just trying to get the moon there with a decent exposure before it set too quickly!

Thanks very much tu-quoque ! It's a beautiful bridge that we're pretty proud of here in Boston. It only opened a few years ago, but it's a symbol of the city now. They had made a decision to keep the lights on the cables turned off to save money, but there was a huge outcry over it, and the lights are back on.

Thanks so much for your compliment Nelson - It's most appreciated, even if it took me 7 months to see it and reply! :( (bad me!) And you get 10 extra points for finding the moon! Many don't see it in there. Cheers!
